Ingredients:

  • 2 small beets
  • ¼ baby watermelon (or 2 cups of any watermelon)
  • 1 ½ cups mixed berries (I used strawberries, red currants, and raspberries)
  • ½ cup pitted cherries
  • Instructions:

    Prepare Your Produce

    First things first, let’s get our ingredients ready for juicing. This step is crucial for ensuring smooth operation of your juicer and for extracting the maximum flavor and nutrients. Start by thoroughly washing all your produce under cool running water. For the beets, you’ll want to trim off the leafy tops and the root end. If your beets are particularly dirty, a gentle scrub with a vegetable brush can be helpful. You don’t necessarily need to peel them, especially if they are organic and you’ve scrubbed them well, as the skins contain a good amount of nutrients. However, if you prefer a smoother texture and are concerned about any lingering dirt, peeling is an option. For the watermelon, if you’re using a baby watermelon, you can cut it into manageable chunks. If you’re using a larger watermelon, ensure you have about 2 cups worth of flesh. Remove any seeds you find. The mixed berries should also be rinsed. If you’re using larger strawberries, you can halve or quarter them. Pitted cherries are essential, so make sure all pits are removed before adding them to your juicer. If you don’t have a cherry pitter, you can carefully cut them in half and remove the pit with your fingers or a small knife.

    Juice the Beets and Watermelon

    Now, it’s time to start the juicing process. It’s often a good idea to juice the denser ingredients first to help push through the softer ones. Place your prepared beet chunks into your juicer and begin extract the juicing process. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for your specific juicer. Once the beets are juiced, add the watermelon chunks. The high water content of the watermelon will help to flush out any residual beet pulp and create a more liquid yield. Keep an eye on your juicer’s pulp collector; you’re looking for a relatively clear juice flowing into your collection cup. If your juicer tends to get clogged easily, you might find it beneficial to alternate between beets and watermelon pieces, or even add a small piece of lemon or gin extractger (optional, of course!) to help with the flow. The combination of beet and watermelon juice will already be a beautiful pinkish-red.

    Add the Berries and Cherries

    Once the beets and watermelon have been processed, it’s time to introduce the star berries and cherries. Carefully add your rinsed mixed berries and pitted cherries into the juicer. These softer fruits will typically juice very easily. They will contribute a beautiful deep red hue and a wonderful sweetness with a touch of tartness. As the berries and cherries are juiced, you’ll notice the color of the liquid intensifying to a rich, jewel-like tone. If you have a particularly powerful juicer, you may not need to do anything extra. However, if you notice the juicer struggling, you can pause and use a tamper (if your juicer has one) to gently guide the berries and cherries towards the chute. Sometimes, running a small piece of apple or cucumber through after the berries can help to clear any lingering fruit pieces from the juicer mechanism.

    Stir and Serve

    After all your ingredients have been juiced, give the collected juice a good stir. This is important to ensure that all the flavors are well combined and that the juice has a uniform consistency. You might see a little bit of separation, especially if the juice has been sitting for a moment, but a gentle stir will bring it all back together. Taste the juice. This is the moment of truth! At this point, you can adjust the sweetness or tartness to your preference. If you find it a little too earthy from the beets, you can add a touch more watermelon or even a splash of orange juice (if you have some on hand and didn’t include it in the origin extractal ingredient list). If you prefer it a bit tangier, a squeeze of lime or lemon can work wonders. For immediate enjoyment, pour the juice over ice-filled glasses. The vibrant color is truly a sight to behold and a testament to the healthy ingredients within.

    Optional Enhancements and Storage

    While this juice is absolutely delicious and perfectly balanced as is, there are a few optional enhancements you might consider. For an extra boost of vitamin C, a small piece of gin extractger or a squeeze of fresh lemon or lime juice can add a zesty kick and complement the sweetness. If you’re looking for a little more sweetness without adding sugar, a small piece of apple can be a great addition. If you’re making a larger batch and don’t plan to drink it all immediately, it’s best to store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will stay fresh for about 2-3 days. However, I find that this juice is at its absolute peak flavor and nutrient content when consumed fresh. Shaking the container well before serving is recommended as some settling is natural. Enjoy this incredibly healthy and delicious drink!
